Hello,
I've got a DivX AVI movie with dual audio but I only want one. Is there an easy way to extract the one I don't want, or extract the video and the audio I do want and recombine them?
Thanks

This should be an easy one.
Load the Divx dual audio file in VirtualDubMod. Go "Streams" - "Stream List". Select the audio stream you "don't" want, click it then click on "disable" from the supplied buttons. Leave the one you desire alone, it should already be 'enabled'. The program defaults to audio being 'direct stream copy' so it won't be reencoded, just copied. ok.
Back at the main interface select "Video" then click on "Direct Stream Copy". This way the Divx Video File won't be reencoded, just copied.
Now click on File - then Save As- select a destination, then ok.
This will give you what you want.
Good luck.

Open the avi in virtualdubmod.
Go Streams -> Stream List.
Click on the audio stream you don't want.
Click on the disable button.
Click OK.
Go File -> Save As. Make sure Mode is set to Direct Stream Copy.
Enter a file name and save the new version.
Test.
Alternatively, use VLC or MPC to play back and you can choose which audio track to listen to. WMP is too stupid to allow you to choose a track, it just plays all of them together.

AVIMux_GUI will also do it.
Similar process.
Load up the file, then uncheck the audio you do not want.
It then renders a new avi file with the one audio track.

the only instruction that was missing was to make sure
that you uncheck where it says "all audio streams" and "all subtitles"
other than that, it is actually that simple, and it only takes about 2
minutes to convert/remove audio from an hour and a half movie!!!
i tried the virtualdubmod mode, but for some reason it made a huge
file, i think it was like 9gb, and it took forever!!
anyway, for me, AVIMux_GUI is definitely the way to go,
works fantastic, exact duplication, no encoding done, no waiting,
no synch issues, blah blah blah....you get my drift...check it out..
i did, and will forever keep this utility!!!! excellent...
thank you david k for this tip (the original poster)

It won't do that if you set VirtualDubMod to use 'Direct Stream Copy' for the video. Otherwise - and if you don't tell it what compression to use - it'll save the video to an uncompressed video stream. That's why it took a while. Direct Stream Copy just tells VDub/Mod to save the stream without doing anything to it.
